Neil Young - Guitarist

When I saw this, I knew, again..that Neil is a superb guitar player. A mature player, one well seated into his skills. Which are very much on display.

So for me the thing about Neil's guitar playing is the sense of time he keeps. This became even more clear to me with the release of the "Massey Hall" and "Live at the Cellar Door" LPs. His playing is great on both these albums--not the kind of pyrotechnics you see on "Cortez" (which is one of my favs)--but just an incredible rhythmic consistency that few can touch. 

+1 dodgealum, though I would add that I agree with a comment I read on another forum that his guitar sounded out of tune on Cellar Door as compared with Massey Hall. 

Define "underrated". I’d put him somewhere in the #50-100 range. Or lower.

Let's ask Quincy Jones.
